Brains in the News, K-9 Reunion, Olympic Ceremony in Prescott, GI Bill Comparison, Student Leadership Opportunity


Interested in how the brain works?  This month's National Geographic magazine is a a treasure trove of new information - see it at your local library or see their online site at: http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/

Here’s a new website that is dedicated to everything about the brain: http://www.brainmdreport.com/  It has special sections for most hot topics, like brain injuries, addictions, depression, and memory, but also unexpected categories like relationships and weight issues, and helpful links on brain-healthy foods and habits.

A great reunion story of a wounded soldier and K-9 is at: http://www.stripes.com/news/pup-gi-pal-reunited-after-being-injured-in-afghanistan-1.264410
